ThcWeckly Florists' Review. 



Jdns 15. 1006. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market 



The cut flower business had its ups 

 and downs the past week; some days 

 were fair, but most of the week was bad- 

 ly off. Saturday the Greeks had carna- 

 tions on the street stands, two dozen for 

 25 cents. Good roses were not plentiful, 

 as some of the growers are throwing out 

 stock for getting ready for replanting. 



Various Notes. 



Eumor has it that the syndicate 

 formed to buy the Sidney Gibbs property 

 is composed of undertakers mostly. 



Casper Limbach, the glass man, who 

 supplies most of the growers in this sec- 

 tion, will sail for Europe with his fami- 

 ly June 20. 



Qub Meeting. 



The Florists' Club met last Tuesday 

 evening and had one of the most pleas- 

 ant and interesting meetings of the 

 year. Hardy plants and roses were dis- 

 cussed and there was a grand display, 

 Henry A. Dreer, of Philadelphia, sent 

 a lot of hardy pinks, foxgloves, gaillar- 

 dias, canterbury bells and other things 

 which were very fine. S. J. Wolf, Ems- 

 worth, Pa., sent peonies and clematis 

 which were especially fine. Fred Wissen- 

 bach, gardener for D. G. Stewart, 

 showed a very large variety, including 

 delphiniums, Iris Sibirica, poppies, fun- 

 kia, heuchera, centaurea, pentstemon and 

 roses. Fred Burki had peonies in va- 

 riety. Schenley park greenhouses had 

 specimens of almost everything in bloom 

 at this season. Magnolia glauca, sweet 

 Williams, daisies, spiraea and a good col- 

 lection of roses, including Paul's Car- 

 mine Pillar, which was very striking. 

 The club certainly owes much to Supt. 

 (Jeo. Burke and Foreman John Jones 

 and his park boys for the interest they 

 take in making good exhibits at these 

 meetings. 



Thos. Fitzgerald, of Beaver, Pa., sent 

 in a bunch of very fine, large white car- 

 nations, a cross between Prosperity and 

 America. This is a fine flower and good 

 stem. If it holds up to what it now is, 

 I believe there will be a future for it. 



A transportation committee for the 

 S. A. F. convention at Washington was 

 appointed: F. Burki, chairman; E. C, 

 Beinemann and John Bader. 



Jarvis Smith was a visitor and helped 

 bring out a good many interesting points 

 about the various exhibits. 



Instead of meeting in July, the club 

 will hold a picnic. The committee ap- 

 pointed to act is H. L. Blind, chairman; 

 F. Burki, and John Bader. Hoo-Hoo.
